Hot Laps is the most direct of the Mitchell Hill descents, featuring a steeper grader and high speed right off the bat. It than enters a cool ravine slalom section before coming up to a 4 foot drop into about an 8 foot gap. Once you hit the road that crosses the trail about 2/3 of the way down the trail changes. From there it is a slower more technical affair to the bottom.

Fun trail with some nice flow and a log drop and a few jumps to get steezy.

My favorite trail of the few I rode on San Juan. Pretty flowy, great dirt, lots of bonus lines to keep an eye out for. Try the slab roll in that starts between The Riches and Hot Laps
We hope you've been enjoying Trailforks!
